Monteriggioni conforms to the archetypal idea of a walled medieval village.

The walls and towers are virtually intact. The visual effect from a distance is astonishing, and the architecture is equally impressive.

 

There are few cars, making Monteriggioni a great place for children. It also has a park for picnics, several restaurants and ice-cream shops and is a great stop during a return journey from Siena.

 

Distance from Borgo Pignano: 30 km.
